London, UK, 09/01/2020 — Retail software specialist, Detego, will showcase its RFID-powered solutions at ‘Retail’s Big Show’ on 12-14 January in New York, USA. Visitors to retail’s leading trade show can explore Detego’s widely adopted solutions including real-time inventory management and pioneering Artificial Intelligence (AI) projects. NRF will also be the first opportunity to experience Detego’s newly implemented Smart Fitting Room application and AI-enabled Smart Shield feature, both of which have experienced recent success in retail stores.  

Detego’s cloud-hosted RFID software is employed by global retailers such as adidas, Levi’s and BESTSELLER to track and manage products from production to point of sale. The Detego platform delivers near-perfect stock accuracy, transparency and product availability for retailers, resulting in higher sales and a more frictionless shopping experience for consumers. Visitors to NRF will be able to experience live demonstrations of the software’s core features such as RFID stocktakes, refill and omnichannel reservations, as well as gain insight on best-practise and strategy for digital transformation.

Taking in-store experience to the next level, attendees of the show will be able to experience Detego’s Smart Fitting Room first-hand, which is now live in UK & US stores. The RFID-enabled Smart Fitting Room assists customers by automatically displaying additional product information, size availability and a ‘call-to-assist’ feature which includes having different sizes brought directly to the fitting room. These value-adding services are what continue to drive consumers to shop in-store and will be on display at hardware partner Pyramid Computer’s booth #5860.

For retailers looking to implement RFID for inventory management, Detego’s latest innovation of the AI-enabled Smart Shield has made implementation of the technology into stores easier and more cost-effective than ever. Smart Shield eliminates the need for physical shielding installations within the store by using machine learning algorithms to distinguish tag locations between the back room and the salesfloor. This previous barrier to RFID implementation is now a thing of the past and represents a huge milestone for the technology within retail. The feature has recently been used to great success with the large-scale rollout of fashion brand Vero Moda and will be demonstrated live at NRF by Detego’s Data Scientists at booth #4620.

Event Overview

Digitally native competitors and demanding customers are forcing a new perspective in retail. Artificial intelligence and machine learning have huge implications for technology and is one of the main driving forces of the ‘fourth industrial revolution’. The AI in retail conference explores how this fast-emerging technology is changing the retail landscape.

The event takes place on the 16th of October at Cavendish conference center in London (W1G 9DT).

With speakers from several major retailers and brands including Sainsbury’s, Domino’s, Microsoft and google, as well as our customers Levi’s, the conference promises to be incredibly insightful on the practical applications of AI in retail.

Presentation: AI for inventory and stock optimisation – ensuring the right products are in the right place at the right time

Our senior data scientist, Simon Walk, will be discussing how the Detego platform offers AI capabilities to retailers as part of a SaaS solution. The presentation will cover AI’s applications for stock optimisation and how machine-learning can ensure products are always in the right place at the right time, including:

  • How Artificial Intelligence works for stock optimisation
  • AI-optimised planograms – How AI and machine learning can be utilised to produce more up-to-date and relevant planograms that are optimised for each individual store 
  • Machine-Learning Product recommendations – How AI is used to provide superior product recommendations to customers to increase sales, and how Detego utilises this technology in smart displays to bring cross-selling to brick-and-mortar stores 
  • Smart Picking Lists – How AI can take stock replenishment to the next level by guiding staff through replenishment with optimised ‘picking paths’ that calculate the most efficient replenishment route for store staff

Who should attend the AI in retail conference?

The event is aimed at senior executives within retail in the following departments:

  • Digital Transformation
  • eCommerce
  • Data Science / Data Engineering / Data Analytics

Event Summary

Future Stores is a leading Retail conference in the UK, focusing on innovations that improve in-store experience and drive sales.

The event takes place on the 22nd and 23rd of May at Twickenham stadium. As proud sponsors of the event, Detego will be alongside other leading technology and solution providers as we welcome hundreds of progressive retailers and experience-innovators.

Detego will be exhibiting between conferences, showcasing our end-to-end software solutions and the ways they can improve customer experience in stores.

We will also be taking part in the conferences themselves, specifically on day 1 which focuses on thriving in the Era of connected Retail.

Detego will begin the afternoon session, which is split into 4 simultaneous conferences. We will be opening the talks focused on enhancing the In-store experience with digital with our case study:

Presentation: Customers meet the digital store – are there going to be more sales?

What can online stores do that Brick and Mortar stores can’t?

Maybe it’s time to re-evaluate. Through intelligent use of technology, physical stores can finally utilise some of the most powerful tools of e-commerce such as endless aisle and cross-selling through product recommendations. Using innovative features like smart fitting-rooms and chatbots, retailers can not only improve the customer experience but can cross-sell and recommend similar products that are available in the store.

To be able to deliver this however, retailers require certain fundamentals to be in place, namely a high level of stock accuracy, efficient store processes and real-time article availability. We explore all of this and the journey to achieve these fundamentals using RFID.

The RetailEXPO 2019 is a wrap and we were thoroughly impressed with the event’s brand-new format this year. Combining the Retail Business Technology Expo (RBTE), Retail Design Expo (RDE) and Retail Digital Signage Expo (RDSE), made it an enormous event and a one-stop hub of Retail Technology and innovation. Not only were there hundreds of innovators and disruptors showcasing at the event, but several big retail brands also made appearances, Vodaphone, Moonpig, NatWest and Lego to name a few.

The diversity of solutions on display and topics being discussed in conferences was exciting, but we did notice some more common themes and technologies that were well represented. As you’d expect with a Retail Technology show, innovation was often a focus of presentations but more specifically consumer engagement, Omnichannel and, encouragingly, RFID seemed to be particularly hot topics.

The RetailEXPO featured over a hundred talks and presentations held across 6 stages. There was a huge selection of topics and categories but one thing they all seemed concerned with in one way or another was the ‘future of retail’. The conferences broadly all targeted innovating in order to thrive in the digital age. There was a focus on the potential that technology offers for retailers who are willing to embrace change and capitalise on new, often-disruptive, technologies.

Detego’s presentation: ‘Unlocking the potential of RFID’

 

Our Senior Marketing Executive, Luke Sinclair, led the presentation which, due to unforeseen circumstances, was altered from what was originally scheduled. The presentation broadly explored the previous limitations of RFID, and how the technology and price points have now reached a point of potential for retailers. It covered the multiple retail industries that can now look to utilise the tags as well as the different benefits that can be unlocked. The presentation also covered our ‘RFID in a box’ approach and how it is the most frictionless and efficient way of implementing the technology, using a three-phased approach that establishes key use cases first before scaling up and adding more advanced functionalities.

Detego’s presentation: ‘Unlocking the potential of RFID’

New technology trends in a changing retail landscape

 

A common theme in talks over the two days was new technological advancements, the speed that they are arriving, and the changing retail landscape as a direct result of this. In a presentation on ‘The new retail landscape’ and the ‘hyper-connected consumer’ Craig Crawford presented the multitude of technological innovations that are altering both the retail market and the typical retail customer. Some of the key insights were:

  • Stores becoming digital & distribution hubs
  • Digital innovation being a journey, not a project.
  • The lack of, and therefore importance, of Instore data to the beauty industry, Crawford described it as ‘Gold dust’.

Similarly, Alex Sbardella discussed Technology Trends and what drives long term innovation. He set out an interesting best practice for modern retail: To be fun when you (the customer) want it to be, and fast when you don’t.  Our key impressions were:

  • The 3 steps to success utilising new technology being: Fragmentation, Innovation and Experience
  • The conclusion that experiences move the needle, in other words, technology only becomes ingrained if it changes the experience for the retailer or, more importantly, the customer.

 

Disruption and innovation: Is it a choice anymore? 

 

Innovation is obviously a common theme of the show (and perhaps of the industry in general). Several presentations at the event framed the concept in a fairly severe fashion. None more so than Martin Wild, whose conference on embracing digital transformation was titled ‘Innovate or Die’. Thankfully however, the tone was more of excitement and opportunity than impending doom, the key focuses being:

  • Customer experience driving innovation
  • Improving business operations using technology
  • Creating an ‘innovation culture’

This idea of an innovation culture was one shared with Moonpig’s CPO, Ronan Tighe who presented a retailer’s perspective of the issue with his talk, ‘Disrupt or be disrupted’. He explained Moonpig’s company culture of attempting to disrupt their own business model before a competitor can do it for them.

 

If there was a single thing to take from the RetailEXPO 2019 it was that the future of Retail technology, and therefore of Retail in general, is exciting. We look forward to being a part of it, and we look forward to being a part of the RetailEXPO 2020, we hope to see you there.

Stores are the new DCs?!

Omni-Channel Forum: Tuesday, February 19th, 3:20 pm – 3:40 pm

Customer’s expectations to shop everywhere at any time has put fashion retailers under a lot of pressure. The quick answer for that was to introduce new systems – since then a huge range of different order management systems was established.  However, what is often missing is a holistic approach in which the role and task of the individual store is reconsidered. In order to be able to offer scalable services such as Click & Collect and Ship-from-Store, you need, in addition to exact inventory data, one thing above all: Logistic processes in the stores, which run like a clockwork. A point where stores can learn a lot from DCs to benefit from increased product availability and proximity to the consumer.

Blockcain vs. AI? And pigs might fly!

EuroCIS Forum: Wednesday, February 20th, 4:00 pm – 4:20 pm

It has almost become a recurring game with rising entertainment value: what will be the big topic of the industry this year? After Business Intelligence, Cloud, Analytics, Blockchain and AI – what’s next? No question: new technologies are the engine of progress, enabling new services and applications. But what matters most is to apply these new technologies to specific problems and issues. The more complex the technologies and the more abstract the keywords, the harder it is to relate to the “Daily Business” – the main reason why many things do not exceed the conceptual phase. Therefore: A few very solid examples about the use of AI in the store to solve real problems. Who’s happy in the end? The consumer.
